I am the Lord,
    the Maker of all things,
    who stretches out the heavens,^(D)
    who spreads out the earth^(E) by myself,

⁵ I am the Lord, and there is no other;^(A)
    apart from me there is no God.^(B)
I will strengthen you,^(C)
    though you have not acknowledged me,
⁶ so that from the rising of the sun
    to the place of its setting^(D)
people may know^(E) there is none besides me.^(F)
    I am the Lord, and there is no other.
⁷ I form the light and create darkness,^(G)
    I bring prosperity and create disaster;^(H)
    I, the Lord, do all these things.

⁸ “You heavens above, rain^(I) down my righteousness;^(J)
    let the clouds shower it down.
Let the earth open wide,
    let salvation^(K) spring up,
let righteousness flourish with it;
    I, the Lord, have created it.
